.Letters Patent No. 114,682, datedhlay 9, 1871.

Th; Schedule referred to in these Letters Patent and making part of the lame.

. specification.

My apparatus for charging and discharging gas-retorts comprises a traveling frame, (hereinafter called carrxer, carrying a set of scoops, feeders, or charging-tools or instruments on one side', and a set of' rokers, rakes, clearers, or drawing or discharging tools or instruments on the other side, and having a to-andi'rc motion on a traversing frame or carriage, (hereinattcr called the traveler?) The set of scoops or charging instruments and the set of rakes or discharging tools or instruments are mounted and arranged, 4each set respectively, on an prightspindle, or on' a framing on the carrier, so that eachset is capable of heilig swung, turned, or moved partially around, in order that such set may be brought either lengthwise of or at an angle to thc general body of the apparatus, as required. f

One mode of effecting this action of the sets of tools is by mounting each such set o n a vertical spindle and actuating such spindle through gearing by a .transverse sh'aft turned by a central hand-wheel.

An improved method of communicating motion to the traveling and traversing frame-that is to say, to the carrier and travoltaconsists in using a chain, band, or wire rape passing ovci' pulleys, and working shaftingca-rryng reversing-gear which can be engaged and disengaged as required. l

Another niode of transmitting motion to the said flames is by pinions thereon gearing into racks on the rails, trams, or ways on which the said frames travel. To prevent the latenti tipping of the carrier it may carry rollers or wheels working on a flange, tram-rail, or way on the traveler or traversing frame.

' An inlproyed arrangement for turning thc scoops,-

first to receive their charges and convey them to the`v retortsy and then to discharge them into the retorts, consists of a rack conected by a rope, chain,4 or thc like with a conntcrbaiance-weight, and engaging with pinions on the scoops or charging-tools. The weight lfis raised in the back-travel of the frame by its passagcover an incline or inclines, whereby the rack is de'- prcssed, and it thereupon turnsthc scoops so as to bring theiraipcnings upward ready to receive their ,charges yand carry them to the rctorts. lhe rack is retained in such depressed position by a lever, which enga-ges it till it (the lever) comes against a stop and releases Y the rack, allowing it to risc and turn the scoops so that they discharge their-contents into the retorts.

'lo ease the motion thc wcight-franie-may travel upon and between rollers.

Instead of the rack and pinions chains may be used, connecting the weights and scoop for the above purpose, the chains being combined with a lever for controlling the action, as above described. l' An improved mode of mounting the scoops consists in fitting them, by hollow ends, on arms on the upright spindle. Each scoop and each rake may' be mount-cd separately on the upright spindle, so as to be worked separately.

My improved rakcrs or discharging-tools consist of a set of bars 0r rods, having at their ends rakes, spoons, tines, or movable tips acted on by bars, plates, or rods sliding on the other bars, or rods, and worked by a piecesliding to and io, and thereby acting on v the sliding bars or plates and causing them to work the rake ends, spoons, tiues, or tips. The sliding pie'oe may be` actuated by a'rack thereon engaging with a toothed weight, wheel, lever, or cam, controlled or not hya pawl. A bellecrankcoming against an abutment causes or allows the weight, wheel, lever, or cam to fall or turn.

I sometimes modify the apparatus by connecting togetherand suspending one or more scoops and .one or more rakes by a cord, chain, or the like passing over pulleys, or by equivalent connecting and suspending appliances, so that when the scoop rises the rake falls, and 'vice versa; or they may be made to rise and fall independently. Sometimes I add, at the outer end or tip of the rakes, a scraper for scraping the upper portions of the retorts.-

I also employ an im proved feeder or tender to charge the, scoop, such feeder or tender consisting ci' a number oi' chutes, one for each scoop, the chutes being of different lengths to suit the heights of the scoops, and

`traveling together-,on rails, trams, or Ways on the floor separate from those of the carrier and traveler. ',lhe'chntes pass under a fixed platform or receptacle, whence they receive supplies ot' coal. Each chute is opened and closed by hinged 0r jointed traps or doors. Hinged or jointed plates at bottom prevent spilling or escape of -coal when the scoops are being charged.

` The above arrangements may be applied and adapted in like manner to apparatus for purposessimilar to the abpve object of charging and discharging gas-ietorts. y

H, supply or drop-floor of the cooling-stage G, with movable skip or truck I for dropping coals through openings in the floor H, onto the stage G, at any desired spot, or, in particular, near to where the feeder or tender K, hereinafter mentioned,may be stationed.

L is my improved movable appamtusfor carrying the instruments for charging and discharging theretorts.4 It consists of the traversing frame or traveler and of the superimposed traveling ti'ame,'carriage, or carrier, on which the charging and discharging-tools or instruments are mounted.

The traveler runs on mils L", fixed on the floor F, and the carrier runs on the traveler with ato-and-fro motion in a direction transverse or at right angles to the direction of motion of the traveler.

' M lare the walls;

N, columns;

0,'xoofs ot"reto1'tlio1ise, all of ordinary construction.

1n the retort-house is anorllinary stationary steamengine, P, which tiinismitsmotion to an intermediate pulley, Q, which communicates'motion to the machine L by an endless wire rope, R, passing l'rom the pulley Q round a driving-pulley, c,on the traveler ofthe' appan'atus L, und then to und round another pulley, vc, thereon, (and then round a pulley not shown in the drawing,) mounted at the end of the retorthou'se, and the .wire-rope next returns to and passes round 4the pulley Q. The appamtus L can thus be brought opposite any desired retorts.

The feeder or tender K, which Vis the movable apparatus for supplying coal to the chutes, may or'may not be coupled with the apparatus L, and pushed or drawn h v und at a determined distance from this apparatus L. i

Fig. 4 is a sect-ion uf the tender or feeder K, drawn to double the scale oi' lig. 3. This tig. 4 also shows the ends of the scoops a carried by the apparatus L.

This feeder K, which is intended to convey coal from thecoalipg-stage to the discharging-stumps, consists ci' a moving frame carrying a number ci inclined chutes `or huppers, '.l, one for each scoop s. rlhese cillin-.Ss 'areofidiiferent lengths soas to open at dilerent levels 'a hand-wheel, l.

-and tinus iwoonnnixiate themselves to thcscoops which mms The feeder K is mounted on wheels K, which run on rails 0r trams Kx on' the working-Hoor F.

The frame'of the tender K also carries quantityf meters or compartments U, corresponding in n umbeil with-the-chntes T and the scoops s, and placed above and leadinginto the hoppers T. These compartments U have floor-valves V, each opening into its respective hopper, as shown .by dotted wheel, W, by means-of a screw indicated by a dotted line, and by levers Wi, one set being-on each side. The back set is shown dotted in tig. 4, and they are similar andparallel to the front or opposite set seen in lig. 3.

AXl are guard-plates, hinged to the chutes T to prevent spilling of coal while the scoops are being charged.

, They are worked by levers Z,actuated by a handle, Y

`.i now proceed to describegs. D, 6, 7, and 5", 6", 7", which refer to the apparatus L.

in iig. 7 the apparatus is shown, for distinctions, without tbe pulley-drivers c c* and spur-wheels d e c' c', which are seen in iig. 7.

Figs. 6 and 6* are elevations on the scoop side of the apparatus.

Fig. 8 is au elevation o i the apparatus, as seen from the rake side, showing the principal parts ofthe traveler and carrier.

a are gi'rders, and

a under frame, forming the principal framing of thetraveler b, its wheels running on trams or rails Lx c, one of its driving-pulleys, actuated by wire rope respectivelythat is, according as .put into action by f levels or clutch-forks, h h, iig. 5, which are actuated by screw i, driven by a pair of bevel-pinions, k, from The wheels g g gear with abevel-wheel, but one wheel only of the two wheels gl g is in gear at one time with the wheel m, (the other running loose at that time.)

The wheel m is thus driven in one or other direction, as required, and on the shaftof m is a saurwheei, n, whichdrives a spur-wheel, o, on the ax of chain-wheels p, which are thus operated.

pf are loose pulieys, over 'which the chains p of the chain-wheels p run, and give t'oandi`ro motion tothe carrier, as shown by the arrows l and 2 -that il to say, toward or from the retorts.

The chains are connected with the cross-framing 1 of the carrier, as seen in figs. 5* and 6* a is a pair of inciines ixed to the framing of the traveler.

a is a foot-plate'for attendant to stand upon.

The second or other driving-pulley, c", Awhich is actuated by the wire rope It,`drives a spur-wheel, c,

which works a pinion, c", on the axis of one pair of the wheels b, and thus givesmotion to thc trave eren therails L in a direction transversely to the ai owe l and 2.

This .motion may be reversed by reversing the steam-engine, or by 'an ordinary clntcli arrangement, o r by using a duplicate set of driving-pulleyswith bands or ropes proceeding from thc engiife, those of one set ruiming inan opposite direction to those of the other set. g q are thetwo side frames, and

q cross-framing of the superimposed carrier, which is mounted on wheels q, running on the girderiba of tbc traveler.

1- is a vertical spindle stepped in and supported by a bracket on the i'i'aiue q.

The spindle carries brackets or arms r", to which the sboops s s are fitted, and thereby supported.

Each scoop s is litted by its end z, iig. 9,"which-is tubular or forms a socket onto an arm, r". When the spindle lr is made to perform a partial revolution .the scoops'turn or swing round with it.

The spindle r is turned by a chain- Wheel or hand wheel, t, woiking a shaft, t", having a olutclni, and

driving a pair of bevei-wheels, t, one of which is on the shaft 1j, so that the shaft `may be turned in the requireddirection, (carrying the scoops with it.)

Each scoop s is reveised or turned on its respective arm so as to bring its opening uppermost or iindermost, as desired. One scoop, s, is shown in the upset' position in fig. 9. This figure also shows full length ot' a scoop, the length of the scoops in certain other figures having, for convenience, been broken oi or shown indefinite.

This motion is effected by pinions u, of which there' is one on each scoop end, z.

These piuions, when the scoops lie longitudinally v of the bodyof the carrier, are in. gear with a sliding and vertical weighted rack, u", depending fiom a chain, u, which passes over pulleys u u* u?, to a counter-balance 'or overbalance-weight, c, suspended .across the carrier, and sliding 'vertically in guides on the side frames q q1.

Ware two bars or legs on the nndei` side of theweight o, guided by rollers c on the cross-framing g, and carrying foot-rollers o, which rest ou inolines a on the traveler.

Consequently, as the carrier is moved forward the rack u* is worked, and the vpinions u are turned, and with them the scoops s are turned partially roundghat is to say, into thev upsetV position shown in On one side of the rack u* is a smaller rack, w, which moves with it, and is in gear with a. pinion, x, on the axis of a snail or cam, x", formed with a notch or seatfor one end oi' a bell-crank lever, y, by which the rack u* is held, and thus the scoops, when filled, and with their openings uppermost, are prevented from turning or upsetting until ,the carrier has bi'ought them fully into the retorts, when the long arm of the lever y will strike against a stud or projection (not seen in the figure) on the frame of the traveler, and then the weight i: will effect the reversal ofthe scoops. The backward movement of the carriage'in the direction of the arrow 2 will canse the weight v to be flifiedby'the inclines a and restore the parts to their.

previous position, the short end of the lever y dropping into its, seat in the snailLcam as".

On the side qof the carrier is a vertical spindle, ci, similar in genera-l action and arrangement to the spindle lr, and swung or' turned by similar gearing to 1 that described for working the shaft?.

0n thisshait, a", are arms as, carrying rakes bf.

Theseiakes consist of movable tips, hingedto the extremity of the armsfq", which also cari)I sliding motionrods or bars, be, one to each, by which the rakerips b are moved and changed from the position shown in fig. 8 into tlie-position shown in fig. 10, by :i connesting-rod. b1.

c* is a frame, sliding to and fro, ss perarrowsl and 2inig.8.

This frame carries studs c, over which the hars b", 4which have holes for the purpose, overlap when the arms are swung or moved-longitudinally of or alongsideof the body of the carrier.

The sliding motion of the framec' will thus work thc rake-tips.

A hand-lever or segment-rack, di, with weight da, works the frame c by a rack, ci, thereon.

s* is a bell-crank detent or Vstop-lever, one arm of which failsinto a notchin the frame q, as shown in fig. 1l, and retains the rake-tips in the position shown at full extent of its travel the long ari-n of the lever ef will strike against a stud or projectioir(not shown in the training of tlievtravelci') and will place the parts as iirst described, ready for the return motion.

q* is a pair of gard-wheels on the carrier-frame, 'bearing against the under side of the upper' flanges of the girders a to prelent th'e carrier from tipping.

.'One suoli wheel, g, is shown in iig. 6". i

I proceed to describe the mode of employing the :apparatus In order that this explanation may bel intelligent I wish it to be understood that when I use thc cxpression longitudinal position in this explanation, and. also in the claims annexed to this specication, I mean a position iii which the scoops or rakes are longitudi- 'iial or lengthwise of the general body of the machine L-that is to say, in a position parallel to the plane ofthedirection of the arrows 1 2, or, in other'words, parallel to a hypothetical vertical plane passing line of the machine L.

In this position the free ends of the scoops or rakes are directed toward the ictorts; and when iii this explanation and in the claims annexed to this speciiication I use the expression right-angled or other` anguiar position, I mean a position at right angles or other angle to -thegeneral body of the machine L, or at right anglesor other angle to the direction of the arrows 1 2; or, in other words,- at right angles or other angle to a hypothetical vertical plane passing through the longitudinal axis or central longitiidal line of thc machine L.

The apparatus is used as follows:

When thcretorts are to bo charged the feeder or tender K, whichis hooked onto the machine L at a ganged distance to suit the position of the scoops, is moved under the front cdge'of the coaling-stage G, and supplied witii coal, which dropsthrough the quansity-'meters or compartments into the chutes T.

The spindle r is then turned so as to swing the scoops s iu a'iight-angled position.

lines as just approaching but not quite-at such rightangled position.

The valves ofthe chutes T are then opened so that the coal drops from the chutes Tinto the scoops s, the guard-plates X being depressed to prevent the spilling of coal while the scoops are being charged, and they are lifted to-get out of the way of the scoops and their contents when the scoops are swung forward, as about to be described.

The spindle lr is then moved in the reverse direction, so as to swing the scoops s with it back to then' previous or longitudinal position.

The carrier is then propelled on the traveler toward -the retorts, so that the scoops may enter the retorts mouths, and when fully therein, the scoops `are rev velsed or upset-that is, so turned on thpir arms fr :is to bring their openings downwardand they thus drop their charges of coalinto the re'wi'tspwhen this in g. 10, while the rakes enter the' ietorts, and when through the hypothetical longitudinal axis or central Iirthe view, fig. 1, the scoops are shown in dotted is done, the scoops are turned on their arms tov their previous position, or position in which their openings are upward.

Thefcarrier 4is then drawn back on thetraveler so that the scoops clear the retorts, the mouths of which are then closed and the manufacture ot` 'ga,s is proceeded with.

During this operation the rakes or 'discharging instruments are .swung out'of the wayclear of the retorts-that is to say, they are moved into a rightangled position by turning the spindle aes in the necessary direction.

But when the retorts have to be drawn or discharged from the exhausted coal or cokerthe scoops are swung into tlris-right-augled or outof-tlre`way position, and the rakes are swung into the forward or longitudinal position, and the carrier is again moved forward ou the traveler, so that the ends of the rakes may enter the retorts, the mouths of which are opened for the ipurpose.

The rake-tips or ends are worked so th'at, they may be brought into such position as torake out ordraw the contents of the retort. When this lis done the parts are restored to their previousposition.

I sometimesI use separate carriers for the scoops and Takes-that is to say, l nronnt a set of scoops on one carrier and a set of rakes on another and similarly :actuated carrier, such carriers being provided with the appliances above described, and runningnu-*the same or diierent travelers, whereby,one set of retorts may he charged while another set is being drawn.

wheel, in gear with the driving-wheels, either directly or by,v intermediate appliances.

I occasionally enrploy a double set of scoops and a double set of rakes, the scoops and the raices being respectively two abreast, and of the same gr oi' dilerent lengths. In the' "latter case' they serve. retorts of,

various lengths. Both sets of scoops may be on the same vertical spindle, or each set may have its own spindle; so, also, for the rakes.

Fig. 12. is an end elevation of a modified larrangement, in which a scoop on one side 'balances a rake on .the other side oi' the carriage.

The scoop and rake are connected by a lchain or cord, r, passing over pulleys, r, so placed as to guide. the chain free otohstructions.

The scoop and rakearenot seen ln the ligure, as they are hidden hy their supports, which slide vert-ii cally on the respective spindles -r and a5.

When the chain r is moved in the direction of the arrows 3 4 5 the scoop rises and the rake descends, and vica tersa when the chain is moved in the oppo site direction. -H l L The ligure corresponds generally' in other respects with fig. 7 and though (for more distinctly showing the balanced. action) several parts arennritted ih lig.

' 12, it is to be understoodthat the scoop may be turned and righted hy arrangements such as lrerer'rbeforc described. and the rake-tips may in like manner. be worked 'by sliding rods, or they may he actuated by hand; also, both scoop and rake may be made to trrrn or swing round, as described, in reference to the firstdcscn'bed arrangement; also, more than one scoop and one rake may be fitted on the spindles r a5.

Fig. 13 is a diagram elevation, and

.1"ig. 14 diagram plan of another mpdloation of riten balanced scoop and rake, 'admitting of their'adjnotment to any height required. The top framing of the carrier is (for'distinctn'ess) removed.

` I n this modification, instead of using the spindll and their arms, slides q', fig. 14, are used, working Illt grooves or seats, q?, fig. 13, on the side frames g q', permitting the balanced vertical' motion above roferred to.

To the slides q are hinged the scoops s and rakearms a' in such manner that they may swing round.

To the slides qs are also hinged frames, q', for can rying the counterpoises q. Y

o is the overbalance-weight for rack u", working n before.

v5, frame (on the carrier) on'which the weight v rises and falls. a, inclines, on which foot-rollers, c, (one only seen in fig. 13,) ofthe weight v run'.

Where single retorts are used-' that is to say, short retorts, having an opening at botlr ends, the tips of the raking instrument may be readily made of proper form to rake or push out the'cokc at the backend o f the retort instead of at the frontend. This form ir well known.

Sometimes, and especially when the apparatus il narrow, I may use, instead ot' the above-described duplicate arrangement of chain;wheels with their'- chain-pulleys and chains, a. single arrangement of thi. description, which I place rnidwise or at some intel mediate convenient position on the framing; and I' mount one pair of the running wheels fast upon a common axle, extending across the carrier from wheel to wheel, (the second maybe so treated also,) and I place toothed wheels alongside and moving with these running wheels; and I mount racks alongside the trarn-rails, into which the toothed wheels gear; and similarly with regard to the traveler, I use toothed wheels alongside of and moving with a pair of itsrunning wheels fast ,upon a common axle extending lengthwise from wheel to wheel; or both pairs of wheels may he so treated if desired.

1 sometimes substitute for :the weight v springs, acting one ou the side q and oueon the sido q1, and pressing on av har which crosses the machine and work in grooves similarly to thev weight c.' The spring! thus disposed act as mechanical equivalents to the weight c, and ina mechanically equivalent manner.'

Al I sometimes employ springsl on tlrerack u inf s rd of weights, such 'springs acting as a mechanical equivalent to such weight or weighting of the .Instead of using a rack for turning the chains may be used for connecting the weight or spring with the scoops, such chains winding on the, scoop ends, and, when actuated by the weight, turning the scoopss I sometimes add scrapers to the end of the raken', formed eitherzby extending or curling-the raketipi further upward than shown in iig. 10, or by adding s separate scraping-tool to the rake-arms.

In order that some of the scoops may be used whllo others are not used, I sometimes adopt the following arrangement:

Instead of forming the arms fr* as xtnres to 0r in a piece with the spindle r, I form them of elbowsh i llle vertical part of the elbow, which is'tubrrlar, ernhrar'zesoris threaded or fitted on the spindle r.

.The horizontal part of the elbow receives the socket end -z of the scoop s. L

I v"attach these arms to -the spindle r by plus, sei;-

scrows, jam-nuts, or other like removable or adjuntas'A ble ooutrivances, so that when thus held they may turn with the spindle;-bnt when it is desired that some of the scoops shall not swing or turn with` the spindle r1 remove the pins or slack the "nuts orl screws of those arms to which are fitted such scoops as are not to turn or swing; hence, some of the scoops will remain stationary while the others turn or swing round. I adopt a like arrangement with respect to the mounting of the rakes.

The apparatus, though shown in the drawing and described in reference thereto as applied to the charging and discharging of gas-retorts, may be arranged and applied in like manner for other similar purposes.
